Great Gifts For Kids From Brilliant Sky Toys!! #Giveaway #Christmas

Hey, who's starting to stress out about holiday shopping already? Trying to find a gift that's unique yet fun can be difficult, no matter who you're shopping for. That's why I'm excited to share this great company with you all-Brilliant Sky Toys and Books! Brilliant Sky is a specialty toy store chain, with 17 locations across the US. For the past 5 years, Brilliant Sky has chosen 10 of their favorite toys, books and games that are top-sellers, and put together a list of these, dubbed the Brilliance Awards. I was able to check out a few of the items from the 2014 Brilliance Awards, and I can easily see why they're favorites!I received the LoopDeLoom, Paint Your Own Porcelain Bowls, and Doodle Quest for review. The LoopDeLoom was actually a gift for M on her birthday last week, and she is thrilled with it! Many of these crafting/knitting/crocheting type gifts get tossed to the side because they're too hard, or too intricate for the children to use. Not so the LoopDeLoom; M has been using it every day for the past few days, and has plans to make some holiday gifts for the family with it!

The Paint Your Own Porcelain Bowls is a set that comes with 3 bowls, paint and paintbrush. One afternoon the girls and I cleared the table, covered it with newspaper, and had some fun painting. As you can see from the pictures below, I am the least artistic of the bunch! It was fun however, and after letting the bowls dry for 24 hours we baked them to "set" the paint. Very fun, and lets the girls be creative and get away from the technology for a bit.

Doodle Quest is a unique game that actually helps with memory/focus! Study the picture that is laid out, then try and complete the quest on your own transparent sheet. It's a fun game that will get the children-and adults playing with them-hooked! Quests range from finding your way through a maze, to drawing circles to protect the scuba divers from sharks, to completing the other half of a seahorse.

As you can see, Brilliant Sky has some real winners in their Brilliance Awards this year! This will make your holiday shopping fun and easy; simply check out the list of products, and pick from there!
